Read the sonnet Moonlight on the Manila Bay by Fernando M. Maramag. Then
answer the questions after it.
A light, serene, ethereal glory, rests
Its beam effulgent on each cresting wave;
The silver touches of the moonlight lave
The deep’s bare bosom that the breeze molests;
While lingering whispers deepen as the wavy crests
Roll with weird rhythm, now gay, now gently grave;
And floods of lambent light appear the sea to pave-
All cast a spell that heeds no time’s behests.
Not always such the scene: the din of fight
Has swelled the murmur of the peaceful air;
Here East and West have oft displayed their might;
Dark battle clouds have dimmed this scene so fair;
Here, bold Olympia, one historic night,
Presaging freedom, claimed a people’s care.
